  • FRANKENSTEIN 2025 Movie Review – Is It Worth Watching?

    Animated and alone, the architect is immersed in the process of creation. Stitching together a masterwork of history (such as 35 episodes of Drawma Kingg that are somehow slightly interconnected) requires electrifying focus. Frankenstein is fundamentally a movie about a son and dad fighting with each other. That was pretty much the same plot in the last movie I reviewed, and I would be bored talking about it two weeks in a row. Dis Drawma Kingg is ‘bout to talk about NOT the movie!

    So 35 episodes of Drawma Kingg already, huh? How did I manage that? Some critics argue it’s because they show no signs of intelligence and thus do not fatigue my brain at all. I would probably agree with that too. So what was the point of 35 random themes of the week?

    Other than Ban Smith, William Aris/Interlock, and Katie Nightfire appearing twice each, there weren’t really any reoccurring characters. Well, I got news for you, Chuck! Drawma Kingg Sidequest #3, the new issue of my pictureless comic book series, is coming soon, and it features BRAND NEW CHARACTERS! After #3, you can expect some new stories about returning characters like the superhero known as Interlock. You might even get a solo Katie Nightfire story! Who knows? Maybe I should have a sequel to that surreal story where the guy can’t properly focus his mind on the unnamed beach stuff that he merely “seems” to be doing.

    Oh the point though? Drawmakingg.com’s purpose is to make you laugh and to give you an archive of enjoyable reading material at your fingertips for any time you are bored. Occasionally, there are non-comedy episodes too that are just meant to be enjoyable reads. That’s really all there is to it in terms of intention. Accidentally, the supposed movie reviews and other stories have become an interconnected network of references that have turned it into a sort of words-only cinematic universe! 

    Is It Worth Watching?: Yes! I forgot to mention the movie was really good!

    Final Thoughts: 8/10 Crowns maybe? I am actually really struggling with the exact number of crowns to give Frankenstein. Carrying the whole film strongly, Oscar Isaac was an absolute perfect fit for Victor Frankenstein. Guillermo del Toro’s directing and the special effects were also super cool! Woulda been nice if it woulda came to streaming services by Halloween this year for extra spooky. Why O Why, I ask! Why can’t movie release dates be exactly what I want them to BE?

  • PREDATOR: BADLANDS 2025 Movie Review – Ending Explained

    Forget all about aliens n’ androids. Predator: Badlands doesn’t really have anything to do with that. Science fiction other world is just a disguise for a movie about fightin’ with your family over TRIVIAL things.

    One time, two boys I don’t know were trying to get some cookies out of a jar. The older one boosts the younger one onto the countertop. Youngbro opens the lid and eats one cookie immediately. Oldbro: “Hey, I want some!” All of THE sudden light fills the room as they are discovered by their switch-flippin’ parents. Just then, a startled Youngbro knocks the jar to the ground, smashing it into fragmented pieces. Now, the angry parents have to clean this up and throw away all the cookies due to contamination! Oldbro was furious with Youngbro! “You got one cookie, and I got none!” he said. Their adult relationship is tumultuous to this day, primarily because of that incident. Obviously, the point I’m trying to make is that this is the kind of family in-fighting the movie is about on a deeply philosophical level.

    Back to events in the actual film for a second. There were two android sisters in the midst of a family disagreement. Having had difficulty hearing in the IMIN theater, I can’t guarantee I heard all of the following dialogue correctly.

    Tessa: You’re planning to run off with my boyfriend!

    Thia: You don’t even have a boyfriend!

    Tessa: That’s beside the point!

    The director portrayed their fight in a very serious and intense manner. Tessa must have been REALLY mad. I just couldn’t understand why the imagined future boyfriend would lead to such a threatening altercation. 

    Ending Explained: Mom’s mad.

    Final Thoughts: 7.5/10 Crowns. In a way, that rating is kinda lower than it maybe should be, because PB without J was a top-notch theater experience for fans of action/sci-fi. The two main characters were totally awesome, the special effects were cool, and the directing was highly skilled. I guess my only real criticism is that the writing had certain things I loved but also had other things that I thought were disappointing. No hate though, that is just my critical opinion as to why I did not go higher than 7.5 Crowns. Overall, I loved the experience and would recommend the movie to anyone that likes aliens n’ androids.

  • DEPECHE MODE: M 2025 Movie Review – Is It Worth Watching?

    What does the M stand for? Depeche Mode: M is a film about the electronic music group, Depeche Mode, and philosophical questions about something or other. I know not what these questions are. Three guesses come to mind on what the second M in the movie title stands for.

    First guess, “Memento”, and the full title of the movie is Depeche Mode: Memento. As a long time Depeche Mode fan, I found the complete selection of songs to be an interesting statement in itself. A mix of the new Memento Mori album tracks and the classic hits.

    Next guess, “Mori”. Full title: Depeche Mode: Mori. It’s not called Depeche Mode MM so it’s probably one of the two. I ain’t no Bandolier Smith (see Drawma Kingg Sidequest #1 or the brief non sequitur story in my TOGETHER 2025 movie review for Ban’s very first appearance), but I can deduce a thing or two once in a while. Oh, the DAVE DANCE! That’s what I wanted to talk about in this paragraph. During the song Sister of Night, Dave Gahan does a really cool and amusing dance when he has a break from singing. I’m just callin’ it the DAVE DANCE. He has lots o’ those from over the years though, so calling just one move the DAVE DANCE is a little reductive of his whole decades-long touring career. Point being – I love all of Dave’s dances from Depeche Mode tours. Still callin’ this one, the DAVE DANCE.

    Is It Worth Watching?: Definitely for the DAVE DANCE alone!

    Final Thoughts: 7.5/10 Crowns. Condemnation with just guitar and vocals was an unforeseen gem of the concert. Normally a piano heavy track, Condemnation is one of my all-time favorite Depeche Mode songs! Oddly, most of the moviegoers in the theater stayed until the credits had completely stopped rolling. Dis Drawma Kingg thinks they were waiting for a bonus scene in the DMCU. That is, the Depeche Mode Cinematic Universe. Oh yeah, I said I had three guesses about what the M stands for. Third guess: “Mode”. The full title of the film being: Depeche Mode: Mode! Clearly, this is the best guess I have ever had about anything so far!

  • THE CRAFT 1996 Movie Review – Ending Explained

    “You can’t even PAY A BILL? What are you good for?” I don’t normally open with a quote, because Dis Drawma Kingg is trying to make an original ART PIECE with every episode. Can’t you surely tell no such thing? So this quote must be pretty important to the whole thing, right? Asking, not telling. Does a human life get respect proportional to the number of bills they pay? Let’s you, the reader, and I, the wroter, take a deep dive into the philosophy of The Craft!

    Fairuza Balk’s work mother posits what I interpret as this: There is no obvious intrinsic value to a human that pays exactly 0 bills. I think that sounds a bit extreme. Aren’t we all worth more than that? How many bills makes us good? At that rate I would guess one or two bills would not satisfy everybody. Maybe it’s like seven bills paid makes people like you for your personality. I hope it’s not 9, 12, or even 14 bills. That’s a lot and seems a most unfair expectation. You may please contest my interpretation of the original argument Nancy’s mother makes in the comment section. Even “I think therefore I am” must be counter argued.

    Could it not be there is something else to measure the worth of any conscious being? My first instinct is how many nachos you’ve eaten (total). Or maybe how many people you’ve shown kindness to. Eh… I might need to spend some time contemplating how likely that one really is. What number of OTHER things could it be? It has to be a number of something. If not a number, how else could it be CONCEIVABLY measured?

    Ending Explained: In the final scene – the witch that was overtly portrayed as crazy for the whole movie is now being portrayed as overtly MORE crazy!

    Final Thoughts: 8/10 Crowns! A much more interesting film than I anticipated. The Craft was not without flaws, yet it was a unique ever changing story. I can’t count the number of times it surprised me. Wow, I hope it’s not number of times you surprise someone that makes you a good person. That would make for some really annoying day-to-day life experiences. Perhaps Fairuza’s work mother was right all along. Maybe we are liked based on how much we provide to the liking or disliking entity. Can we then derive that any positive feelings towards a person means that they provide something to your life? I imagine you are all saying: “No, Drawma, Kingg, I disagree with every assumption you have made on one of the best lines ever in a film! GO BACK TO WRITING YOUR PICTURELESS COMIC BOOK SERIES!”
